love story

-$4Ng by taylor swift-

We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air

See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say "Hello"

Little did I know
That you were Romeo; you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet."
And I was crying on the staircase
begging you, "Please, don't go..."

And I said
"Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone"
"I'll be waiting; all there's left to do is run"
"You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess"
It's a love story - baby just say "Yes."

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while
'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said "Stay away from Juliet"
But you were everything to me
I was begging you, "Please, don't go.."

And I said
"Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone"
"I'll be waiting; all there's left to do is run"
"You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess"
It's a love story - baby just say "Yes."

Romeo save me - they're tryin' to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid; we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story - baby just say "Yes."

Oh.

I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town

And I said
"Romeo save me - I've been feeling so alone"
"I keep waiting for you but you never come"
"Is this in thy head? I don't know what to think"

He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said
"Marry me, Juliet - you'll never have to be alone"
"I love you and that's all I really know"
"I talked to your dad - go pick out a white dress"
It's a love story - baby just say "Yes."

Oh, oh.

We were both young when I first saw you...
